This is a great idea for homes with limited window space.  Acrylic block operable awning windows make the most out of home designs with fewer window openings and provide light, privacy and fresh air while adding long-lasting style and value to any home.

With the Hy-Lite line of operable Decorative Glass Windows, homeowners can select from operable casement or awning windows in American, Craftsman, Euro, Euro Blue, Brilliance Wrought Iron and Spring Flower styles. The combined aspect of easy-open windows and Energy Star qualified energy efficiency options on many of these windows make them a choice for bathrooms, kitchens, hallways and bedrooms.

When designing a kitchen or bathroom remodel with limited window openings, these are a great option, especially here in Phoenix.  It's a great way to enjoy the wonderful weather we have 8 months of the year!

Replacing windows can give your home the 'facelift' it's needed!  These Kolbe Windquest Energy Performance windows can do this but more importantly they provide a service that is twice that of Energy Star criteria and solar heat-gain coefficients above the standard.  Available in casement, awning, or studio versions, the windows feature a 1-1/4" triple-glazing system and allow a maximum air infiltration. 

Design options include grills in the airspace or performance-divided lites in several bar widths in either white or beige (the exterior may also be color coated with a polyurethane color finish).  With many options in windows it's important to know what you're looking at and have an experienced home remodeling contractor to answer any questions you have.  Let Homework Remodels help you pick out the right windows for your home.
